Michigan Concealed Pistol License (CPL) Safety Course Practice Exam

To transport a pistol in a vehicle without a CPL in Michigan, the firearm must be:

1. Unloaded and in a locked compartment

2. Loaded but in a holster

3. Visible to law enforcement

4. In the glove compartment

The correct answer is: Unloaded and in a locked compartment

To transport a pistol in a vehicle without a CPL in Michigan, the firearm must be unloaded and in a locked compartment. This is the only safe and legal way to store a firearm in a vehicle without a concealed pistol license. Option B is incorrect because it is not safe to transport a loaded firearm, and while a holster may provide some level of security, it is not a sufficient replacement for a locked compartment. Option C is also incorrect because it goes against the requirement for the firearm to be properly secured. Option D is incorrect because the glove compartment is not considered a locked compartment and leaves the firearm accessible to anyone who may gain access to the vehicle.
